anxiety

The vet recommended Paracetamol, as it doesn't interfere with blood clotting, as other pain relieffordogs can.
He gave me some tablets. They are big and have "square" edges.
Normally Misty is easy to give a tablet to. I wrap it in a piece of brown bread, potato or cheese, throw it at her and it goes right down without touching the sides!
Right now she is eating ok again, but delicately, chewing her food (for once!

There is nothing you could have done to treat the problem. Kidneys just don't heal once they've been damaged. I know dialysis is possible fordogs, but it's such a hardship on them. Same with transplants. I doubt it helps, but I absolutely agree with your decision to do your dog the great favor of easing her out of her misery. Since she was so young, I wonder if there was an underlying genetic issue that resulted in bad kidneys.

But I'm sure others will tell you they do.
Driving around, or doing anything for that matter gives me relieffor the most part. When I was younger I use to take long drives to think and reflect, so it is only natural for that to be helpful to me now. (as long as it doesn't involve being stuck in traffic, cause thats a whole other story)
And yes my anxiety in the beginning seemed to not be as bad at night. Now however, its just the opposite.

Thank You sooooooooo much. I am going to try your suggestions. I to, used to be able to drive the freeway like a crazy person. I actually LOVED the freeway & driving itself now I fear it everyday. I take back roads to work & have not driven the xpressway in a year but I want to so bad. I try to tell myself that this is NOT going to control me & some days are good & I feel like I can drive forever...but most days are a real challenge. I have trouble at stop lights....

My ENT wants me to ahve surgery.i am also on klonopin foranxiety have been on benzos for 18 years and am being tapered off its not easy.Last couple days the dizziness is so bad....but i went to er and they checked my blood and said no nfection and they exrayed my sinues waste of money dr says they are clear,but my cat can from the ent shows different,,,so u get like one sided head pain,eye pain,cheek pain,ear and neck pain plus the awful dizzines? My thoughts will be with you.

Hello,
I have this problem too and was puzzled about the anxiety diagnosis...in reality, its not so much anxiety as it is a for of OCD. We have become aware of our breathing and thinking about it put it into all kinds of odd patterns. Harmless but miserable to say the least.
It took six months for me to come to the grip that this is not medical but something in my " head" The good thing is, I can make it go away, and IT WILL GO AWAY.

So, three weeks ago I did and they put me on Lexapro 10mg foranxiety and Protonix 40mg for stomach problems that go with my anxiety. So, now I feel better but I wonder if I could avoid all this by stopping the birth control pill. What other options are there for a 20 that doesn't want to have kids for at least 5-8 years?

For the past few weeks I have been throwing around ideas as to the best way to respond to this matter. You see a recent article ( Feb.3 , 2009 NY times) titled "Best treatment for TMJ May be Nothing" nearly made me clench my jaw to pieces.
While well written, I found that the author, Ms. Brody, relied heavily on out dated and narrow perspective supplied to her by a small group of dentists.

Estrace, Tri-Est, Bi-Est) has the negative effect of increasing blood clots because it is not naturalfor estrogen to enter the bloodstream through the stomach. Pill estrogen, even if it is bio-identical, goes from the stomach to the liver and stimulates it to make clotting factors"
I will check Uzzi's book tonight. I have been falling asleep after reading only one page...not that this is not interesting stuff, just that I am going to bed way toooo late:)
Things will get better.

I know this old girl that around mid 20's, a stripper, and that illegally use them for mild anxiety and panic attacks and even for recreation. But they drink and smoke weed a lot too. They do have the side effect, like vomiting, and nautious, etc.. like the side effect says for Xanax.
But does this happen for all people?
I have bought Zanax Illegally before just to try them, and I had 10 blue .

After a second colonoscopy under anesthesia I was told I had IBS and sent home with pills that didn't work! It wasn't until I asked for a copy of the procedure report that I saw the term "redundant colon."
I have been able to find little information about this diagnosis. What treatment options are there? Is surgery an option and, if so, what is the longterm outcome?

I wonder about bone health and cholesterol and skin...eye health, anxiety, joint pain, basically all the things for which we take the BHRT. You all have gotten to know me well, I think...as well as one can on a website, so know that I hope and pray she is doing as great as she says. But, when a woman goes through regular menopause there is a small percentage who do really well...then there is the rest of the group who need help...and again, that is for the natural menopause.

But I bought all the supplements, the immodium, I have xanax foranxiety and clonidine from my Dr. So I hope this works I'm so done with being broke, and sick when I run out!!! It's time I take my life back once and for all!! These posts have really helped to give me the last bit of courage I needed to do this... It made me realize I'm not alone!!!!

That's why I've been wondering if this is really asthma or something else. i know for sure that this is not anxiety because my peak flow changes.
I've been getting sick way too often and I'm right now sick. I was wondering as well if the pneumonia came back or if I was having some sort of respiratory infection but when I went to my PCP yesterday he game me only a cough sirup and I got really frustrated.

One person in particular, not in this group, advised people to use Frontline-Plus (That's a tick and flea product fordogs) on themselves to cure Lyme. He and his mother drank it and other 'naive' people were asking how much to drink or to rub on their own bodies!'
He presented all the half-truths available from toxicology sites, pubmed etc about using it. Fipronil was the compound he talked about the most.

Also, I have been taking a daily vitamin, some amodium for my stomach, lots of alleve for headache, and have had some relief from the restless legs from a homeopathic remedy called "Restfull Legs."
Let me know if I can be of any help.

sShe was already on Ciprofloxacin for sinus infection diagnosed by pediatrician and he extended it for 1 month. Also - if symptoms stepped up pace he wanted her to try Prednisone. (This has been kicked around -but all mds wanted to avoid it) Recently things started acting up again - low grade fevers creeping up (this with sulindac 24h/d) feet getting cold again, intemittent numbness at various places on her body, racing heart with sudden slow down (ped.

• Floaters heaps and big
• Complex basilar artery migraine - visual and neurological symptoms only
• Happening for almost twenty years now - no real improvement or medical diagnosis
Some relief with Dilantin for migraine 100 mg - had to stop after 12 years as was causing rapid heart beat and Dilantin causes increased urination freq. With other male problems this was becoming an issue but it did work on many of the problems – not all.

Today the TTY arrived and I'm hooking it up. That's a relief. Now I will be able to communicate with everyone I know. I am back in touch with the world. But when you have a psychiatric disability you aren't always in touch with yourself. And you may not know what's going on. Writing is a good tool to understand that. Poetry is one form.

As a traditionally trained veterinarian with several years additional training and experience in holistic natural therapies, I have found that certain natural pet vitamin supplements provide safe and effective arthritis pain relieffor arthritic dogs that are also affected with thyroid and kidney issues.
Various combinations of Glucosamine, MSM, Chondroitan Sulfate, Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C and Essential Omega-3 Fatty Acids are safe and extremely effective to relieve pet arthritis pain.

Real palliation involves treating for the treatable, providing pain relief using real analgesic drugs when necessary, and the giving of psychological comfort by listening to the patient where possible. It is time to finally pound a wooden stake through this travesty of lies that is the vampire known as homeopathy.

Natural Treatment for Demodectic Mange.”
5. Airborne Allergies (Atopy) – Many animals are allergic to the same things that cause human allergies (dust, grasses, pollen, etc.). While humans' allergies tend to affect the upper respiratory system with sneezing and watery discharges, dogs’ and cats’ responses are more likely to involve dermatitis, or skin inflammation.

Magnesium supplements are good for the heart, for the blood flow, and can help prevent anxiety and stress. Magnesium can also help to relieve insomnia and depression.
Take a good Omega-3 supplement every day.
Also, you should take a good multivitamin supplement every day.
If your DP has come on because of taking drugs, you may feel quite guilty; Remember: It's not your fault!
It's nobody's fault.

If you do some research on the oils you will find a whole new world of natural ways to help you with your anxiety and you might even do as I have done and bought a book with recipes for all sorts of little afflictions. Whether it be a bee sting or you are feeling depressed and anxious. You know the astronauts take an essential oil called vetiver with them into space because it smells like the earth and it gives them a grounded sense.

I'm looking at having to find homes for my dogs because I'm not sure it's in their best interests to remain with me.
Well, I just had a good dose of stress and came away from it trembling, with my heart in my throat, and ready to throw up. The stomach is no doubt influenced by this stomach bug I'm still fighting. But the trembling and constricted throat make no particular sense. The problem did not come as a surprise (someone pitched a fit over an issue that's been brewing).

I have such respect for anyone who has come off Tramadol and .... I don't know ... maintained a life?
Mud mud mud everywhere. Walking thru mud.
I just took vitamins and a big cup of Lecithin granules which are supposed to decrease anxiety. I feel frightened and alone. These are DRUG THOUGHTS. But they get scary. It's like randomly losing your mind, and then suddenly; "POP" you are back to "normal.

and they use echinacea as a natural remedy for colds and flu , it's called a natural antibiotic but they works different. echinacea instead of "killing" builds up the natural autoinmune system so in the long term is much better, but it's a remedy for the colds when you have them not for avoiding them and to take for months, ok?. but once the cold is out, echinacea still works for the next time cause it leaves you stronger and not weaker like the traditional chemical remdies...
